One Piece of Song Dynasty

As soon as Huzi finished speaking, there was movement at the Yingchun Gate. The Yingchun Gate was slowly opened, and the people guarding the city gate and tower were quietly killed by Zhao Yun's men.

After the Yingchun Gate was opened, Zhao Yun sent someone to hold a torch to signal. Huzi saw the signal and said excitedly: "What about General Kou? I'm right. Our deputy commander Zhao has already opened the city gate. Let's move forward quickly." City."

Kou Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let someone pass on the order."

Following Kou Cheng's order, the five thousand cavalry ambushing outside the city quickly took action. When they arrived outside Yingchun Gate, Huzi introduced to Zhao Yun: "Deputy Commander, this is General Kou Chengkou, the commander of Yue Shuai's cavalry. .”

Zhao Yun held Kou Cheng's hand and said: "Hello, General Kou, time is pressing. Let's enter the city now. There is also an imperial city in Yanjing City, which was left by the Liao Dynasty in the early years. Although there is no emperor living in it now, There are still a few royal clan members of the Jin Kingdom living there, and only by capturing the imperial city can the entire Yanjing city be considered captured."

Kou Cheng asked: "Oh, how can we enter the imperial city?"

Zhao Yun said: "There is a tunnel. Our Commander Liang dug a tunnel directly to the Imperial City a long time ago. The tunnel is in the mansion where Commander Liang once lived. We can enter the Imperial City quietly through the tunnel. Let's go and take someone first." You occupy other important places, and finally we will go to the Imperial City."

Kou Cheng replied: "Okay, Commander Yue gave his orders before coming here. When we arrive in Yanjing, we will obey Mr. Zhao's orders in everything."

Under the guidance of Zhao Yun and others, Kou Cheng's five thousand cavalry successfully occupied all the places in Yanjing City except the imperial city. It was already the end of Yinshi, that is, at five o'clock in the morning, and Wang Gui led the pursuit Kou Cheng's five thousand infantry finally arrived outside Yanjing City out of breath.

After learning the news, Kou Cheng immediately handed over the city defense to Wang Gui. He and his men followed Zhao Yun and others into the imperial city and launched an attack on the imperial city.

After the enemies in the imperial city were eliminated, the entire Yanjing city was completely controlled by the Song army. As Zhao Yun said, except for a small number of Wanyan clan members, there were no important people in the imperial city.

Yue Fei's battle plan is progressing in an orderly manner, and Liu Qi's on the other side is going equally well. Compared with Yue Fei's mission, Liu Qi's mission is much simpler. After occupying Huacheng County, just strengthen the city defense and wait for the Jin army's reaction. In addition, in order to help Liu Qi defend the city, Li Xin also specially approved forty five-pound artillery for his use.

By or o'clock in the morning on July , Zhang Xian's troops of the Song Army had occupied Changli, Yuguan, Funing, Pingzhou, Haishan, Luanzhou, and Macheng, while Yue Fei's headquarters had occupied Yutian, Wuqing, Baodi, and Xianghe. , Anci, Miaoyin, Yanjing and other cities, all the ministries are continuing to advance rapidly as planned. Zhang Xianjun and Ouyang Rui's troops who occupied Yuguan did not change the flag after occupying Yuguan in order to delay the news of the Jin Kingdom. And all the soldiers guarding the pass changed into the clothes of the Jin army.

The people of Yan who woke up early were shocked when they saw the situation in the city. The flags in the city were all replaced by Song flags. When they looked at the groups of Song soldiers who were patrolling, the people felt as if they had seen a ghost. What on earth is going on? Where did these Song troops come from? Did they fall from the sky? Didn't they say that the war has been south of the Yellow River? Why did they come to Yanjing? The hearts of the people were full of doubts.

Soon some people beat gongs and shouted in the street. These people were sent by Zhao Yun. They shouted: "Fellow fellow villagers, you must be shocked when you see the situation in front of you. You must think this is a dream, but... Let me tell you, this is not a dream. Yanjing has been recovered by the Song Dynasty. Not only Yanjing, but also Pingzhou, Luanzhou, Jizhou and other places near Yanjing have also been recovered by the Song Dynasty. However, although the Song Dynasty Yanjing has been recaptured, but you don’t have to be afraid, not just the Han people, but also the Khitans and Jurchens. As long as you stay safe and keep yourselves, the Song army will not make things difficult for you. You can do whatever you need to do except that you can’t leave the city for the time being.”

The people felt a little relieved after hearing the shouting, but the Khitan and Jurchens felt uneasy even after hearing the shouting. The Khitan people could not forget what the Song army did when they entered the city. After all, it had only been more than ten years ago, and the Jurchens were even more afraid. Well, after all, the Jurchens and the Song people have a blood feud. Thinking about the good things the Jin army has done to the Song Dynasty since Jingkang, we can understand the fear in the Jurchens' hearts.

At this time, only Kou Cheng's cavalry were maintaining law and order in Yanjing City. After helping Kou Cheng stabilize Yanjing City, Wang Gui's men left Yanjing and headed for Changping and Juyongguan, where Wang Gui's army was located. Your future base camp.

And Yue Fei was still leading a large group of troops on the way. It was almost noon when Yue Fei led the army and arrived at Yanjing. Zhao Yun and Kou Cheng went out of the city to greet Yue Fei in person. July was the hottest day of the year. At that time, after dismounting, Yue Fei wiped the sweat from his face and looked at Yanjing City and said: "We are finally here. It has been more than a hundred years. We have failed to attack this place several times. This time, I, Yue Fei, will never come back even if I die." Get out of here."

Li Ruoxu next to him sighed with emotion: "Yes, if we are beaten out again this time, then we will have no shame to see our ancestors, and we will have no shame to see the prince, so we must not repeat the same mistakes as before."

Yue Fei said categorically: "Sir, don't worry, we will definitely succeed this time. I, Yue Fei, have already made up my mind. If we don't succeed this time, we will be fine."

Zhao Yun and Kou Cheng saw Yue Fei dismounting and coming forward. Yue Fei asked without taking a break, "Kou Cheng, how is the situation in Yanjing City?"

Kou Cheng replied: "Commander Yue, everything in Yanjing City is fine at the moment. There are no problems. The people are keeping to themselves for the time being and there are no troubles."

Yue Fei nodded and turned his gaze to Zhao Yun next to him. Kou Cheng quickly introduced: "Shuai Yue, this is Deputy Commander Zhao Yun, the person in charge of the secret espionage in the Yanyun area."

Hearing this, Yue Fei took Zhao Yun's hand and said, "Thanks to you this time, we were able to capture Yanyun so smoothly. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhao Yun said: "This is what we should do. We came here just for today. Commander Yue, how are the other armies doing?"

Yue Fei replied: "Yuguan has been captured. Except for Zhuozhou and Yizhou, the other armies are advancing towards their respective targets. If nothing happens, we will be able to capture all target areas tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Okay, Commander Yue, you have been busy all night. Come into the city and take a rest."

Yue Fei waved his hand and said: "There is no rush to enter the city. Time is urgent. Let the soldiers drink some water and take a break to eat. Some soldiers have to continue on their way."

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Okay, I will organize people to deliver water and food right now."
